Ron Paul Likes Obama?

In an interview on The Situation Room, Paul told Wolf Blitzer that endorsing Sen. John McCain, the Republican Partyâ€™s presumptive nominee, â€œwould really confuseâ€ his supporters â€œbecause they know we have a precise program and we have to defend that program.â€

Having a Republican win the upcoming presidential election is â€œsecondaryâ€ for Paul who is more interested in defending the Constitution, having the country go in what he considers the right direction, having a sound currency, and achieving balanced budgets. Paul parts ways with McCain over McCainâ€™s support for the Iraq war, his approach to U.S. foreign policy in the Middle East and his willingness to spend federal dollars to support military operations in Iraq.
